There was no miracle for the Lakers. The latter must say goodbye to the competition after being eliminated 4-1 by the Nuggets following their defeat (106-108) in the fifth round. However, some fans agreed to point out someone to blame for this disillusionment.
Traveling to the Ball Arena for Game 5, the Lakers had an obligation to leave with a victory in order to keep hope alive in this series against the Nuggets. It was a close call, but the Californians finally lost (106-108) on a new game winner from Jamal Murray. The competition therefore ends in the first round for the latter, to the great dismay of the fans.
Because in a franchise as emblematic and successful as that of the Purple & Gold, failure is not an option for supporters. And since they are still having trouble digesting this elimination, Darvin Ham is under fire from criticism. What the tactician is once again criticized for is his poor management of the lead during this match, given that his men still had a significant advantage.

While the Lakers led by 9 points, they were pulled back by the Nuggets who then beat them by three units in the 3rd quarter, without Darvin Ham deciding to take a timeout. It was far from the first time that the band LeBron James struggling to maintain its advantage, we obviously remember the 20-point comeback of the reigning champions to win at the buzzer during Game 2.
And since this has become a habit for LA, the coach faces criticism from all sides. Despite everything, he would still have the confidence of Rob Pelinka and Jeanie Buss and should keep his position next season. Shaquille O’Neal still expects change. And as far as the fans are concerned, the mockery towards the coach is numerous, even if there is a lot of anger behind it.
